Overview

The aim of the BA course in European Languages and Literatures (L-11) is to train graduates with a mastery of two European languages (currently, we offer Portuguese, Spanish, French, English, German, Polish, Russian, and Rumanian), associated with the ability of metalinguistic analysis and a sound knowledge of the cultural and literary heritage of their civilizations.

The course also aims to provide skills in theoretical linguistics, Italian language and literature, history, philology and – depending on the chosen curriculum – in further specific subjects. The course also furnishes basic information technology skills. The course is divided into three curricula: European languages and literary cultures; European language and language sciences; European languages, literatures and artistic cultures.
